This Week's Local Outreach Partner Spotlight:
World Relief and Good Neighbor Teams

Join us this Sunday, July 3, for our adult elective to hear an update from our very own Mitchell Road members who volunteer with World Relief and Good Neighbor Teams! World Relief is a global Christian humanitarian organization whose mission is to empower the local church to serve the most vulnerable. Today, there are over 80 million people around the globe who have been forced, or made the painful choice, to leave their home. Threatened by extreme poverty, violence, and oppression, they leave behind everything familiar to seek a life free from fear. Thousands of these refugees, asylees and other immigrants in vulnerable situations come to the United States every year seeking a place to rebuild their lives. Join us in the Sanctuary at 10:10AM to learn how together, we can help.

July 10 – GirlUp Gvl | girlupgvl.org

Journey Through Scripture - Woah, We're Halfway There!

Anyone else sing the chorus of "Livin' on a Prayer" by Bon Jovi when they hear we're halfway there?! This week marks the halfway point in our journey and that is no easy feat! We are so proud of you, Mitchell Road, for taking on this challenge and encouraging others in their journey, as well. While we have some tough books of the Bible ahead, keep pressing on. If you got off track, you can still jump in with us!

Watch this short video below to hear what the Warren boys have to say about their "journey through scripture" thus far!
